Explain all possible values of 'only' and 'except'

......@@ -441,13 +441,25 @@ There are a few rules that apply to the usage of refs policy:
* `only` and `except` are inclusive. If both `only` and `except` are defined
in a job specification, the ref is filtered by `only` and `except`.
* `only` and `except` allow the use of regular expressions.
* `only` and `except` allow the use of special keywords:
`api`, `branches`, `external`, `tags`, `pushes`, `schedules`, `triggers`, and `web`
* `only` and `except` allow to specify a repository path to filter jobs for
forks.
In addition, `only` and `except` allow the use of special keywords:
| **Value** | **Description** |
| --------- | ---------------- |
| `branches` | When a branch is pushed. |
| `tags` | When a tag is pushed. |
| `api` | When pipeline has been triggered by a second pipelines API (not triggers API). |
| `external` | When using CI services other than GitLab. |
| `pipelines` | For multi-project triggers, created using the API with `CI_JOB_TOKEN`. |
| `pushes` | Pipeline is triggered by a `git push` by the user. |
| `schedules` | For [scheduled pipelines][schedules]. |
| `triggers` | For pipelines created using a trigger token. |
| `web` | For pipelines created using **Run pipeline** button in GitLab UI (under your project's **Pipelines**). |
In the example below, `job` will run only for refs that start with `issue-`,
whereas all branches will be skipped.
